First off he's still in the top 15, I don't see how that is "pretty bad" considering he didn't drop nearly as far as Deion Walker, Logan Heastie, or DJ Shoemate did

Second of all, don't you see the irony in your statement? What makes him the best back in the country? Is it because of attributes you feel he has that others don't? Or is it simply because Rivals, the very people you are bashing, ranked him the #1 RB to begin with?

I dont think you know how things work around here. if ND has 25 recruits they all better all be in the top 25 or they're underrated. Thats how things work for all fans of schools. Also i agree it is ridiculous. how did 11 people get better than him over the summer? if he drops during the season when games are being played thats understandable but a site shouldn't drop someone that much over the summer they have to be wrong at one point and its ridiculous that they've made such a big mistake one way or the other

Did anyone see the piece over the long weekend on Fox 11 News here in Southern California about Santa Clara and how the program has grown in just a few years into a power? They interviewed Cierre and showed a bunch of his game film. The more I see of this kid, the more I get excited about getting him on the field in '09. Plus, he is a great interview and seems like a very intelligent and quality young man.

ESPN2 is showing Mater Dei vs Carson right now. Shaq Evans and Cierre Wood were on the sidelines and were interviewed.

Shaq says he's still considering (in his stated order, FWIW) USC, UCLA, Notre Dame, Colorado and Michigan. This month on the 26th he's taking a visit to ND and in the future to Colorado and Michigan.

Cierre, asked why he chose ND, not only is it a young team that he has a chance to play early, he also gets an education from ND which is excellent if football doesn't work out. Said the ND campus made him feel at home, like a family. Told the ESPN reporter he prefers to be listed as a RB (they have him listed as an Ath).

Army Bowl wants Wood

For the second consecutive year, it appears a Ventura County running back will be the first player chosen by the U.S. Army All-American Bowl selection committee.

The Army All-American folks are staying tight-lipped about why some Army VIPs will be attending a big pep rally at Santa Clara on Thursday, but it doesn't take a football guru to figure out running back Cierre Wood will be announced as the first selection of the West squad.

Through four games, the Notre Dame-bound Wood has rushed for 751 yards and 10 touchdowns for the defending Mid-Valley Division champions.

I saw highlights of this kid a couple weeks ago from a game where he didn't play in the first quarter because he missed a practice. He only played the second and third and some of the fourth and he went for something like 250 yards on the ground. Kid looks like a total stud.
